Welle maybe not OT as its for * mainly that i'll eventually be using=20
to control my HA.  My meteor and CMU will also be attached this is,=20
probably running xAP when i get round to setting it up properly.

My trustly AMD2000+ server is on its lasts legs, irq conflicts all=20
over the place tried nearly everything now and its still crashing=20
after a day of uptime.  So its time to replace it i think.

Intel=AE Pentium=AE 4 3.066GHz Prescott (800MHz) 1MB cache Retail=20
inc.Fan (3 year warranty) or Intel=AE Pentium=AE 4 3GHz (800MHz) Hyper=20
threading 512K cache Retail (3 year warranty) ?

I really cant decide as the 1mb cache should be faster but the other=20
is hyperthreader - it only has about =A33 price diff between the two=20
on microdirect.

I was gonna go for the Asus P4S800 P4 SIS648FX 800FSB mobo as its=20
cheap but good enough for a server as it hasnt got all the extra=20
ports to eat up my irqs.

Any thoughts?
